User Reviews

  • Best viewer on the grid IMO. Fast renderer, high FPS, fantastic for filmmaking and just a lovely looking SL viewer. I used to hate any viewer from v2.0 onwards but have come to enjoy using this now Kirsten has been working hard with this viewer. Usually ahead of the curve while having features that the Official viewer does not have. Cant remember the last time it crashed on me, just a solid build that handles the most intensive spots on the grid, even when 90+ avatars are around me. Thank you for all your time and energy put into this, it is really appreciated! Specs > AMD RYZEN 7800X3D | AMD 9070 | 32GB RAM | 990 PRO M.2 This viewer also runs on my RYZEN 4300G | 16GB DDR4 system which does not even have a dedicated GPU installed in it :D Cheers Buddy!
  • Visualizador muito bom, mesmo estilo que o oficial SL, que você pode usar em laptops mais antigos, mais fracos ou com processadores de segunda geração para cima. Ele foi o único que serviu para a placa de vídeo HD Graphics 3000; só não espere muita qualidade de visualização porque demora um pouquinho a carregar. E mantenha seus drivers sempre atualizados.
  • Fantastic having Kirstens Viewer back. Not only do I enjoy the view it presents better, I think it has a better, cleaner looking user interface. While using it, the only things that stood out as being missing (or I just don't know where to look for it) are as follows. * Windlight Settings (sure I found some, but not the long list I'm used to) * Hover Settings (sometimes need to make an adjustment, where?) * Music Stream metadata (Like to see the artist-song that is playing) Maybe the above items are already easily set and I just don't know where. For the past couple of years, I've been using Firestorm, if that helps in understanding my mindset. Once again, great to have this viewer back!!!! 💛💚💙💜
  • long time i wait for this , big big thank's and congratulation , beautiful work ! ! ! !

    Your most Welcome :)
  • I was very happy to see the Kirsten Viewer still alive till i installed the S22... i better went back to the S21.. The S22 gives me problems and crash when i want to import some meshes and even if i turn on the lights and shadows it looks uggly like the antialiasing wouldnt be working.... I am really sorry, but this viewer is not what it used to be before.... it was great then... but idk what did you ppl chaged, it sucks now... i better use the older one while it still works
